Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 816 Purifying Bloodlines

Seeing the powerful shadow energy emanating from the Devouring Toad, the Sunwheel Beetle's expression also became solemn.

"Aren't you afraid of being overwhelmed and dying from absorbing elements that don't belong to you?"

"Heh... Of course I know, otherwise why would I come looking for you?"

The Devouring Toad made no attempt to conceal its desire, saying, "Once I consume your Great Japanese Origin, I can neutralize the Shadow Origin, rebuild my Origin Divine Body, and the problem of the Origin quantity will naturally be solved."

"You really are a madman..."

Upon hearing this, the Sun Wheel Beetle became even more wary of the Spirit-Devouring Toad, unleashing its full power, which covered its body like armor.

Meanwhile, the Devouring Toad also activated its own source, and the shadow, carrying dark purple spiritual power, formed a special protective barrier that enveloped the Devouring Toad's massive body.

Then, the two mythical creatures launched another attack, and each clash caused the heavens and earth to change color.

But gradually, the sun beetle began to show signs of decline.

The Great Japanese Origin and the Shadow Origin are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, and were originally equal in strength. However, after the Soul-Devouring Toad merged them with the Soul Origin, a qualitative change occurred.

Each strike from the Devouring Toad impacted the soul created by the Sun Wheel Beetle. Even though the power of the Great Sun was meant to strengthen the soul, it gradually showed signs of weakness in the face of such an impact.

All of this was within the Devouring Toad's plan.

"The Great Sun and the Shadow—if we can merge, I will possess the strongest divine body, and then I will be able to bear that power!"

A greedy glint flashed in the eyes of the Devouring Toad. It grabbed the Sun Wheel Beetle, stunned it, and suddenly expanded its body, clearly intending to devour the Sun Wheel Beetle directly.

Yin~

Just then, a sword rang out, and the Devouring Toad instinctively tried to dodge, but its tongue was still cut by a long sword.

"Who is it!"

Seeing the Sunwheel Beetle escape, the Devouring Toad was furious, but then he saw Alpha holding the Sword of Reincarnation, standing between him and the Sunwheel Beetle, his body shimmering with light, much like theirs.

"This is... the power of origin?"

The sun beetle immediately recognized the power emanating from Alpha and was somewhat surprised.

Judging from its condition, Alpha is clearly still a legendary creature. It was already surprising to discover that they had mastered the power of laws at the beginning, but it turns out that he was still wrong. Alpha actually possesses the primordial power that only mythical creatures have!

"You've grasped the origin, but haven't advanced to mythology. Are you deliberately suppressing your level?"

The Sunwheel Beetle asked curiously, but Alpha did not reply. Instead, it kept adjusting its state in imitation of the aura on the Devouring Toad.

"How come I've never seen this kind of origin before?"

Seeing this, the Soul-Devouring Toad became even more curious, especially after sensing the true meaning of Alpha's origin, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"There's even an origin of this kind of attribute! That's wonderful, wonderful!"

The Spirit-Devouring Toad roared to the sky, saying, "Once I devour you, I can more easily devour the Great Japanese Origin. It seems I am destined to reach the pinnacle of mythology!"

After saying that, the Soul-Swallowing Toad suddenly stuck out its tongue and charged straight at Alpha, who did not dodge and also swung its sword to fight back.

The mythical creature's power was clearly superior to Alpha's, and it was directly knocked away in its first confrontation with Alpha.

But Alpha did not retreat; after a brief respite, it launched another attack.

This time, Alpha was much faster, and as the frog tongue continued its attack, it left a long scar on it.

However, the Devouring Toad was clearly determined to get Alpha, and despite the pain, it rolled over and tried to swallow Alpha whole.

Faced with this situation, Alpha still did not retreat. The Sword of Reincarnation stabbed the Devouring Toad. The image on the sword flickered and finally stopped at an image full of golden light.

In an instant, a powerful force of the sun erupted from the mouth of the Devouring Toad, and the scorching energy forced Cangchu to spit out Alpha.

"That is..."

The Sunwheel Beetle was somewhat surprised to see this. The Devouring Spirit Toad had wanted to devour him for many years. Once, he was almost devoured, but he severely injured the Devouring Spirit Toad with this move.

I never expected that Alpha would be able to replicate this move.

Is it a law of time? Or a law of replication?

The Sunbeetle seemed puzzled, while Alpha seemed to have found its rhythm and unleashed another sword strike.

This time, the Sword of Reincarnation did not hit the Devouring Toad's body; only one Reincarnation appeared. However, the Devouring Toad let out a painful roar, and then a purple light was seen detaching from its body.

Awoo awoo!

(Delicious soul, I'm here!)

At the same time, Beta suddenly became excited, leaped up, grabbed the purple light and shadow, and then pulled it up with all three heads, swallowing it in no time.

"Damn it, how dare it devour my soul!"

The soul fragment was swallowed, and the Soul-Devouring Toad erupted completely. The purple soul essence and the black shadow essence appeared above its head and collided violently, causing a powerful force of law to rush towards the husky.

Snap snap snap!

(Gamma won't hold back on the power of laws he hasn't experienced before.)

Gamma released his suppression of the Void God Body, and the power of law, which was originally like a storm, immediately converged towards Gamma and then disappeared.

"Looks like I really underestimated you guys~"

Seeing this, the Sun Wheel Beetle reacted, gathering the power of the sun into a long spear and throwing it towards the source of the Devouring Spirit Toad's head.

Seeing this, the Spirit-Devouring Toad advanced instead of retreating, its dense shadow power emanating from its source, seemingly about to devour Alpha.

But before Alpha could retaliate, the Great Sun Spear shattered the shadow, and behind the shadow, the Devouring Toad was nowhere to be seen.

"That guy, he's still running that fast."

The sun beetle seemed to have long been accustomed to the behavior of swallowing the spirit toad and had restrained its power.

Awoo awoo?!

(I had just tasted the sweetness of victory when this stinky toad ran away? Come out quickly and fight me for three hundred rounds!)

Seeing that the Spirit-Devouring Toad had actually escaped, Beta's face was full of disdain. He roared at the spot where the Spirit-Devouring Toad had disappeared, as if he would tear it apart if it dared to come back.

"Okay, stop pretending, they've already run far away."

Seeing this, Bai Qi pouted in annoyance, then looked at the Sun Wheel Beetle and said, "Thank you, otherwise we would all be dead."

"I should be the one saying thank you. If it weren't for you guys, that stinky toad might have really gotten away with it."

The Sunwheel Beetle shook its head, glanced at Alpha's three companions, and said, "Your three companions are very strong. Although they are not mythical creatures, they are already no weaker than some mythical descendants."

The sun-wheel beetle paused, then said, "On the contrary, how did you, who are so weak, become their companion?"

Uh, is this a rejection?

Bai Qi's lips twitched. He wanted to say that Alpha and the others had a contractual relationship with him, but he doubted whether he would be killed by the Sun Wheel Beetle if he said that.

After all, anyone would feel uneasy if a weak person could control a strong person through a contract.

"We probably get along quite well."

Bai Qi made up a reason, looked at the imposing figure in front of him, and immediately summoned the Cordyceps.

"Chief, you've finally released me. Are the enemies still there?"

Through the contract, Cordyceps could sense that Bai Qi was in danger, but Bai Qi did not release him, and Cordyceps was still completely bewildered.

"The enemy has fled; now we're calling you out to acknowledge your kin."

Bai Qi secretly informed Cordyceps about its current situation through the contract. Cordyceps also sensed the throbbing in its bloodline and couldn't help but look at the Sun Wheel Beetle.

The sun beetle was also stirred; in the instant their eyes met, the two species, with completely different appearances and strengths, resonated with each other.

After a long while, the sun beetle was the first to wake up, and its gaze toward Bai Qi and his group became somewhat complicated.

"So you are the 'humans' Nozdormu mentioned..."

The Sunwheel Beetle looked Bai Qi and his companions up and down a few times, then glanced at Alpha and the other pets, and said, "No wonder I had a strange fondness for you guys before. I didn't even notice that you had so many familiar auras on you."

"You guys are probably heading to find Nozdormu, right?"

"Nozdormu? Oh right, I think that's what the bullskin snake is called."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi nodded repeatedly and asked, "Do you know where he is?"

"Of course I know, my relationship with the dragons is pretty good."

The sun-wheel beetle nodded and said, "However, shouldn't you first explain to me why this dragon carries the aura of my bloodline?"

Upon hearing the Sunwheel Beetle's question, Bai Qi chuckled awkwardly and said, "Actually, I don't know either. It was already like this when I met it. Perhaps, it's a descendant of you and some Western dragon?"

Bai Qi knew, of course, that it was a bit inappropriate to lie in front of a mythical creature, but he couldn't very well say that the cordyceps obtained the Great Sun bloodline after eating his molted insect skin, could he?

"Sorry, I'm still single."

The sun beetle ruthlessly exposed Bai Qi's lie, leaving the three of them quite embarrassed.

Fortunately, the sun beetle did not pursue the matter. After glancing at Bai Qi a few times, it returned to the cordyceps.

"Although I don't know how you acquired my bloodline, you can be considered my family in a way, so I'll help you out."

As it spoke, the sun beetle suddenly patted the cordyceps, and a brand new sun appeared on the cordyceps. Then it spit out golden threads that wrapped the cordyceps.

"This little guy's bloodline is too mixed. Without purification, he won't be able to unleash the true power of the Great Sun."

purification?

Oh my god, will it wash away the other blood vessels of the cordyceps?

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi's heart skipped a beat. Although the power of the Great Sun was good, the foundation of the Cordyceps had now shifted to the Law of Illusion and Reality.

If this gets washed away, where will Bai Qi go to cry?

However, the Sun Wheel Beetle seemed to have noticed Bai Qi's concerns and added, "Don't worry, I only purified the Great Sun bloodline; I didn't touch anything else."

"I really don't know where you found such a strange guy. He's neither a bug nor a dragon, and he even has that guy's bloodline added to him. It's really..."
